Open-access On sports in physical education of childhood: reflections and experiences

Sports as a schooling subject is a theme of extensive discussion in Physical Education in Brazil. In this context, this paper reflects on the possibility of its experience in Childhood Education. The paper puts in question the responsibility of teachers to show sport as cultural production to children, not as competition, but considering that culture is the substance of education and that children are not far from sports and culture. Two pedagogic experiences with sports to teach children are presented. This moment of basic education can be a time to learn important points of corporal practices, like sports among them, toward creating with children new forms to have a relation with cultural objects.
